my attempts at poetry and journaling. I enjoy both, as well as learning how to be a mom and balance everything in my life. I love my life but I sometimes feel hopelessly inadequate.

Yawn.

My boy's teething seems to be affecting his sleep somewhat. Yesterday and the day before he woke up briefly in the wee hours and needed a bit of consoling before going back to sleep, and the last week or so he's gone from 2-3 hour naps to 1 1/2-2 hour naps. Not so nice when I'm trying to cram an hour run, lunch and a shower into his nap time. Sigh. Other than that, though, he is wonderful. He didn't even need to be wrestled into his stroller today. We discovered a new park close to home today and he enjoyed climbing over the barrier between the paved walkway and the bark play area. I only had to remove two inedible tree berries and one piece of bark from his mouth, so I consider the trip an overall success.
